Has CA Ever Had Such a Slow 1600m Champion?
Has CA Ever Had Such a Slow 1600m Champion?
The only reason Andersen's 800 is so slow is because he's being weighed down by his state(and now national) championship medals from other events. Get real, idiot.
Thankfully for him NXN isn't 800 meters long.
Being from the same area as Anderson, I know his 800pr is actually 1:56, ran at a small meet, so it's not on athletic.net

Just noticed that Liam Anderson has a unique skill set. He's only run 1:59, 4:09, yet has run 8:52.
Has there ever been such a "slow" champion in Foot Locker? Barely sub-2?
800m on a track is a completely different event than a challenging 3.1 mile XC course.
It's like saying Rudisha should be able to keep up with the top guys at 100m.....way different events bro.

Ritz?
There seems to be some evidence of his slowness.
His best in grade 9 was 2:03.97, then he improved to 2:00.00 in grade 10 and finally 1:59.67 in grade 11.
So it's not as if he only ran the event once . Remember that he was 22nd at NXN as a soph and 3rd as a junior, so it's not as if he became good only this year.
I would be excited as his future coach knowing that he will be great at 10k. I would love to find out that his 400 PR is 56.

Definitely a slow twitchier, the next American to go sub 2:09 in the marathon?
Reminds me of Seth Hirsch.
If he follows the leads of Gessner and Hirsch, we won’t be talking about him in the future.
Holy Crap do they have a lot of officials at the CA state meet - they had more officials watching from the track then most HS meets have spectators...
Yes - Kenny Cormier.
